Promising review: "The more that you wear these shoes, the more comfy they become! I can walk around in them all day, and I get a ton of compliments on them.

19.Waterproof rain boots that will have you looking up at the sky and begging for rain. You'll wish for rain every day so you can wear these every day, you know?

Promising review: "Best investment ever! Having to walk to and from my job six days a week in a semi-rural setting required me to invest in a pair of rain boots, especially since it seems to rain every day of late. The first time I put them on, I found them to be a tad too big in the heel area and flopped a bit meaning I thought they'd be a pain to walk in. But after wearing them about two times, they seem to have taken on the shape of my foot and ankle. (So smart!) They got more supple with each use. They are absolutely lovely to walk in, there is support and a certain amount of warmth, and my feet didn't get all clammy." —gabrielannouncer

Get them from Amazon for $34.43+ (available in sizes 4-11 and in four colors).

Promising review: "I absolutely love these shoes! I have wore these shoes almost every day since first buying them. Breaking them in kind of hurt, but they were fine after the first few wears. These are some of the best shoes that I've ever owned! I can wear them for an eight-hour shift at work and not have sore ankles, knees, and hips like I might with other shoes. Plus, these shoes are sturdy and I can tell they will last me for a very long time. Certainly worth the investment." —Bridgette

22.Combat boots lined with faux fur to keep you feeling nice, warm, and toasty — even when the weather outside can best be described as "my face hurts".

Promising review: "I was prepared to be about as disappointed by these shoes, but they're actually INCREDIBLY comfortable and seem pretty sturdily made especially considering the price. I walked almost a mile and a half in these today, wearing them as they come (without the medical orthotics I've been prescribed for my messed up arches), and yet these felt really great to walk in. A total stranger also complimented me on them!" —Remy Z.

Get them from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes 5-12 and in 10 colors).
